How a wave of false bomb threats is disrupting air travel in Europe

A series of false bomb threats have disrupted air travel across Europe, affecting at least 35 flights. The threats, which began on Monday, have led to diversions and evacuations, but no explosives have been found. The International Civil Aviation Organization reported that 16 countries are involved, with warnings typically sent via email. The threats appear to be coordinated, with multiple alerts arriving in quick succession. Experts suggest these incidents may relate to broader geopolitical tensions, although no group has claimed responsibility. If caught, perpetrators could face significant prison sentences in various countries.
